My favourite cowboy story ( I never witnessed it, but it came from a reliable source) place an entire box of eggs 180 ish eggs into the bowl of the Hobart mixer ( large planetary mixer ) pulse a few times to smash all the shells, than pass through a fine chinois to remove all the shell.

This was our standard procedure at a major hotel...the health inspector saw it and almost peed herself......

I don't buy it. Time taken to wash Hobart and pass eggs vs an egg in each hand. I'd take a bet on that

Knock yourself out and try 180 or more eggs by hand vs a Hobart for jollies. I refused to use a mixer as a young new sous chef, insisting on cracking by hand. I thought using the mixer was disgusting. The rest of the crew was amused, puzzled on had since moved on to other prep while I skillfully cracked eggs. In all fairness, I wasn't washing anything when I was done.
